If you're after a shiny new PS5 console, your current options are to either pick up a PS5 Slim, or put your name down for the all-new, upcoming PS5 Pro. While Sony would naturally love for you to go all out with its latest offering, the company is also making the former a more tempting prospect by offering a welcome discount.
From now until Monday 14th October, the official PS Direct store has slashed the prices of all PS5 Slim consoles by £50/€50/$50. If you're happy to go with the more affordable choice of PS5 console and want to beat the holiday rush, that's not a bad deal at all. You can grab one below.
Prices are shown below in GBP and USD, but the deal is also live in Germany, France, Netherlands, Italy, and Spain – simply click your chosen product below to be taken to your local PS Direct store:

The deals conveniently line up with Amazon's latest Prime Day event which kicks off on Tuesday 8th October. Whether we'll see any deals on PS5 consoles there remains to be seen, but we can't imagine them beating these offerings. You'll be able to check out all of the best Prime Day savings in our guide starting from tomorrow:

Really stings, currently on the side of waiting for PS6 (although of course I would like a PS5 pro).
Not almost, unfortunately.
It's double plus 20 notes.
I'll wait for the PS7 Pro...
